A video of an interaction between RJD MLA from Kochadhaman, Kishanganj Izhar Asfi, and a government school teacher has gone viral on social media. In the video, the MLA threatens to have the teacher allegedly killed by his goons inside the jail. Taking matters into his own hands, he can be heard threatening a teacher inside the jail with the assistance of his goons.
As per the reports, Muhammad Imtiaz Asfi, the MLA’s son, shared the video on Facebook. He also tagged his MLA father. The threats were reportedly given by the MLA after a teacher at the upgraded high school Ahmednagar Modho in the Kochadhaman block of Kishanganj district brutally hit a student. On July 31, 2024, MLA Izhar Asfi arrived at the school to visit.

During this moment, he threatened the teacher, saying he would have him hanged inside the jail in two days. He further stated, “Do you know that 90% of the people in jail belong to us? There’s a thief, a thug, and a murderer. If nothing happens to you outside, then we will send you to the jail and get done with you.”
The video that is making rounds on social media is believed to have been posted on 31st July this year. However, netizens are condemning the MLA saying that the party’s true face has finally been exposed. “The real face of RJD has been revealed,” commented one of the users.
Meanwhile, the other user highlighted why a maximum of the RJD people are in jail. “Imagine they are making such remarks when in opposition; no one knows what they will do if they happen to form the government. All leaders are the same, some say it in public while others do such things secretly. It is just the public who is fooled,” the user said.
When the RJD MLA was asked about the threatening viral video, he said to listen and watch the video properly. Meanwhile, former JDU MLA Mujahid Alam condemned the video and said that in the eyes of the law, be it Prime Minister, Chief Minister and MLA, all people are equal and making such a statement is condemnable.
